ScreenFix Hiatus, or How We Slacked Off and Nearly Killed Our Blog

The ScreenFix readers are a mythical creature, one that we hope exists but of which we have no concrete proof. These creatures may, in the past two or three months, have taken note of a certain lack of content on ScreenFix. This is because there hasn't been any.

If our readers truly to do exist, we here at ScreenFix owe them an apology. It starts with, "We've been restructuring and refocusing," but that's as far as we got.

Because that would be a little too mature and professional, we've instead developed a list of excuses. We hope you like them.

  • Zoe: Less of a vacation, more of an excuse to get out of seeing Conan.
  • James: Finding myself with a lack of things to write about I decided to keep actually trying to do my job and make some television. I’ve been working on a series of projects the most prominent of which is a television show. I’ll promise that I’ll post more about that in the future. We’re almost at a point where I can talk about it publicly.
  • Brian: There are no excuses. There are only pimp hats.
  • Kyle: Time is an illusion. Where one may spend an evening in Paris drinking wine beneath the gaze of Notre Dame, one may spend that same in another plane of existence where a single day there is discovered to be a hundred years by our measure of things. Luckily, I despise the taste of wine, and spent but an hour to be polite.
  • Ryan: When in the course of human events a person finds themselves watching The West Wing for the fourth time in a row it becomes necessary for that person to reexamine the monumental amount of time he is wasting. I hold this truth to be self evident, that I will stop watching politically themed scripted dramas until my sanity returns and shall renew my efforts toward bringing our readers (assuming we actually have any) a regular schedule of commentary on the latest pop culture has to offer.
  • Amanda: Well I stopped having a life for a while. There was only work. But I think someday soon i might find the elusive “work- life balance”. Maybe.
  • Scotty: I has a job.

All of that being said, we hope we haven't lost you, O Mythical Readers. We promise you new content, and you will have it. Look forward to the first post of the new generation in one week!


Love,
The ScreenFix Writers
